About this event

Wray Crescent is a small park created in the 1970s to bring greenery to an urban area. It has the only public cricket ground in Islington. There’s a lovely vegetable garden named for Yvonne Connolly, the first female black headteacher in the UK and a bee friendly area. Learn more about the musical history of the surrounding Victorian streets, from Soul2Soul to piano factories, and discover local cycling champions, suffragette supporters and more!
